There was the $787M lawsuit settlement Fox agreed to because of Carlson's content. That probably had a bit more to do with it.

The Dominion lawsuit was Hannity [1] not Carlson.
Carlson is much smarter and lets his guests actually make wild accusations while Carlson is "just asking questions".

You said Carlson twice.
Now, I've said Carlson thrice!
Oh no! He's going to appear behind me.
It's kind of part of the same thing. He said stuff Murdoch didn't like so he was gone. Whether he believed it or not is hard to tell.
No, he finally said something that cost Murdoch money instead of making him money.
Exactly. They were totally fine with Carlson's content until it cost them a significant amount of money.
Part of the lawsuit is that he and the other Fox hosts were texting each other and mocking the lies they were saying on air as obvious nonsense.
Did he say something different after the $787 million judgement? Because the whole reason that judgement came down is because Murdoch was fine with what Carlson was saying.
